Sony WH1000XM3 Noise Cancelling Headphones, Wireless Bluetooth Over the Ear Headset – Black (2018 Version)

Sound was so amazing

So I purchased this headphone because it was on sale on Amazon and because I read a lot of good reviews and articles about it.

The look great, they are light and thus feel great. The audio is amazing, the noise cancelling indeed matches the hype.

sound good life good

Amazing sound cancelling and sound quality. Comfort is excellent. Not in love with the touch controls.

Just received these today...tested for a few hours on a range of music- from classical to jazz to hip hop, pop and classic rock. I am a bit of a headphone junkie and have had several pairs of Sennheisers (HD1, PXC550), Bose QC 25, QC 35, Parrot Zik 2 and 3, VModa Crossfade, Crossfade 2 wireless, Zn etc. Most of the positive reviews of these headphones are completely on point. Phenomenal noise cancellation. Great sound detail (I could hear people taking their foot off the piano pedals during Jazz songs such as Frank Morgans Lullaby or the snare drum rattling from Barry Oakleys bass in Allman Brothers live at Fillmore east or Adele taking breaths between long notes) - HOWEVER, these headphones are so bass rich that it overwhelms the rest of the sound frequencies. If youre a bass-head, these are definitely for you. But, if you like a neutral soundstage, you will probably find this annoying. The good news is that on the app at least, there is a clearbass setting on the EQ that can be dialed down. However, they still overemphasize bass and I havent figured out how to dial it down when connected to my laptop. Two other annoying things - while largely comfortable, I found the headband dug into the top of my head a bit and my ears got hot after an hour of listening. Second annoying thing - these things are HUGE when on (and I believe I have a normal size head). They look kind of dorky. If you want to look cool in your headphones, these are also probably not for you. However, if youre my age and care less about coolness than sound quality and noise cancellation, it matters much less (but still matters a bit). Anyway, just thought Id share these thoughts with you. Thus the 4 star rating instead of 5. Im out...

I am somewhat an audiophile and these headphones are nothing short of incredible. It always an great experience listening to music I love. These Sonys make me fall in love with my favorite songs all over again. VERY-HIGHLY Recommended

work great, no negatives, not sure why price isnt dropping with time

The headphones are extremely comfortable over the ear, the sound quality is excellent, the intuitive hand controls are amazingly responsive, and they connect to anything that even hints at being Bluetooth. Great pair of headphones at a great price! The product arrived as advertised and on time as well!

Best sound quality Ive heard and after 2 years it still works like new
